Eat well throughout the day. If half of your plate is vegetables and fruit, you’re on the right track.[3] Add in lean protein, low-fat dairy, and whole grains. Once a steady eating pattern has been established, your body will feel more comfortable. There may be a period of time when your body is wondering where the sugary foods went, but once you’re over the hump, you’ll feel better than ever.
- Remember that not all fats are bad for you. Good fats can be found in fish like salmon and tuna, avocados, nuts, and olive oil. These are essential to a well-balanced diet.
- Make an effort to eat regularly timed meals throughout your day. However, avoid grazing all day.
